Stoel Rives LLP is the Salt Lake City host for the monthly ABA/ACORE Renewable Energy Teleconference Series. The title of this month's teleconference is "US Feed In Tariffs: Lessons Learned."
Feed-in tariffs (FITs) have been used for many years to promote the growth of renewable energy in Europe. Such tariffs impose on utilities an obligation to give grid access to specified renewable generators and to enter into long-term contracts to purchase their output at prices sufficient to incent their rapid development.
